1. ok guys i have 153,00 miles on my maxima 5 speed. everytime i press on the clutch pedal or release it makes a squealing/groaning noise from the pedal i sprayed some lube (silice/red gease)on the spring & the lil rod that goes into the fire wall.( doesn't have 2 be in gear does it with the car on or off, release or presssued makes noise) but no luck. any ideas?????

2. i have a ACT street clutch. with 20,000 on the clutch. i still get the really bad chatter.(getting tired of it). BTW how long do these clutch last anyways????????

I had a similar "noise". I replaced the clutch master and slave cylinders.

 

ya but the the noise comes and goes. could it be the master/slave but i hear it from the pedal.

 

get underneath by your pedal and move it up and down with your hand and see where the noise is comeing from...seems like the rod going into the master cylinder is not greased up enough..take some lithium grease and do that rod up...if its still there spray some WD up in there where you hear it...I used to have it, 15 min later not one peep at all

as for the chatter...Me too...thats the price for performance

Check your motor mounts everyone for clutch chatter.

 

I did 3 out of 4 of my motor mounts with poly...Im about to drop out the third (pass side top mount) and fill it with poly

i got place racing mounts and a new trans motor.mounts still all good..

i got 2 try and grease the rod again
thanx jeff
